Currently clicking on it will pop up the query builder dialog.

I've been thinking about what you propose too, but do not want to break current 
behaviour,
That is why I thought about a context menu or so.

But easiest probably is: click on icon (which optionally will have two 
versions: an active/inactive one), to show dialog and a checkbox there.

Hi Richard and all,

Speaking of the little "Filter icon". Couldn't this icon be used to 
toggle the filter state "on"/"off"?


A single click would toggle on/off state, a double click would open the 
dialog?


Just an idea. Not sure if it is doable.

Thanks for working on this,
Andreas

Another workaround is layer duplication. You can have an instance

Duplicating a layer is an option, but messes up your project, if all 
you want to do is go over some specific ID's.
A 'Recent' item IS available, so history IS available, it's just not 
convenient enough for me.

 Hi List,

 When I add a filter to a layer, I often want to temporarily disable
 that
 filter (just to see what the full view is).

 Working a lot with sql scripts recently, in which you comment out (a
 part) of a sql query by putting '--' in front of it, I tried that also
 in the Query builder, and though it looks like I'm commenting out my
 query (the query is greyed-out), it's not working, I get a parsing
 error.

 So usability question:
 - would other people be interested in temporarily disabling the layer
 filter query, or am I the only one :-)

 If yes:

 - should it be implemented by 'commenting' out part of the query?
 - or should there be some 'temporarily disable' checkbox in the query
 builder)
 - should it be a context menu (either the layer, or the little filter
 overlay icon in the layermanager)

 Tech question:
 - any forseeing issues with such thing?

 Regards,

 Richard Duivenvoorde

Then go back to the default style?

Obviously a checkbox would be much more user friendly.

Hi Richard,

An enable/disable checkbox that works without deleting the filter would be
very nice. Just like data defined symbology where you can disable it
without losing the expression.

Short term workaround for you:

  TRUE /* [yourfilter here] */

[QGIS-Developer] Disable/commenting provider filter?

2021-05-10 Thread Richard Duivenvoorde 

Hi List,

When I add a filter to a layer, I often want to temporarily disable that 
filter (just to see what the full view is).


Working a lot with sql scripts recently, in which you comment out (a 
part) of a sql query by putting '--' in front of it, I tried that also 
in the Query builder, and though it looks like I'm commenting out my 
query (the query is greyed-out), it's not working, I get a parsing 
error.


So usability question:
- would other people be interested in temporarily disabling the layer 
filter query, or am I the only one :-)


If yes:

- should it be implemented by 'commenting' out part of the query?
- or should there be some 'temporarily disable' checkbox in the query 
builder)
- should it be a context menu (either the layer, or the little filter 
overlay icon in the layermanager)


Tech question:
